were kindly met and invited to remain over
till after supper, and attend one of the usual
weekly dances given them for the patients.
The members of the convention present

The Cotton States, a newspaper published
at Gainesville and edited by Col. j. NJ
Arrow, now of Jacksonville was the only
paper published east and south of the Su-
vance line of all the papers existing at the
beginning of the war, that was regularly
published from the beginning to the end of
the war Col Arrow thinks that he has a
complete file of it, which contains all i'm
portant events happening in this section
covering that period, and historical
facts not to be found elsewhere. In
addition to editorial and news matter, it
contains the productions of many of the
leading men of those eventful times. The
Cotton States Office was twice in the hands
of the Federal troops during the war, and
fortunately was not destroyed, although the
troops would have done SO, but for the time
ly attack and victory of Dickerson. Col.
Arrow also has tile of the Ncl0 Era for
over year which succeeded the Cotton
States at Gainesville; also file of about a
years publication of the Commercial Iladea,
which he edited at Fernandina in 1868. All
of the files contain valuable information of
the times in which the papers were pub
lished. Col. Arrows paper, at Gainesville
was suspended twice at the point of the
bayonet after the war for publishing what
duty dictated. The country was under
military rule and in a deplorable condition
at that time. The Cotton States did the adj
vertising for the Confederate States, the
State and many of the counties during the
war; and il was paying enterprise from
the time that Col. Arrow took charge of it
until he retired and removed to Fernan-

tighten the Virginia public on the subject.

paragraph stating that the substances which
